This term, year 3 are reading the book, Stone Age Boy. We started by immersing the children into the book, we predicted what might happen using our prediction and inference skills, we thought of questions we would like to know about the book and we researched The Stone Age!
After this fun week, we then moved on to learning about fact files. The children have used their reflectiveness skills to reflect on other non-chronological reports and the features we use in them to think of the features of a fact file. Then, we planned our very own fact file about The Stone Age using bullet points to help us draft our writing. Today, the children wrote their fact files using their plans to help them extend their sentences and wow we have seen some amazing fact files!
'I enjoyed writing a fact file about The Stone Age!' - Ayaan
'Subheadings are a key feature in a fact file.' - Hope
'Fact files are a type of non-chronological report.' - Liroshan
Thank you to everyone who came to our final Stay and Play session for Year 3, it was lovely to see so many of you there.
Our focus today was Literacy and the ways in which the children organise their writing. Beginning with the planning process all the way through to editing and evaluating their work. The children used their resourcefulness skills to demonstrate how they answer SPaG questions, allowing us to give you a small taster of some of the areas that we have covered within class.
We hope that you found the session informative. We will be looking at the responses from the parent survey to see how we can make improvements to ensure that the children can continue their learning at home effectively.

As requested, we have attached the slides from the previous Stay and Learn sessions.
Elm class enjoyed a fun afternoon watching Disney’s Strange World snacking on delicious popcorn. This was a very special treat because Elm class won the attendance league in the Spring term! A massive whale done to Elm class! I wonder what prize they would choose next time if they won it again...
